CONNECTING THE DOTS

2011 NEW YEAR WISH LIST FOR AMERICA

The year 2011 arrives in a matter of days! With it the promise of a new start! We face horrendous challenges on multiple
fronts. We can change our actions to
bring positive results. The new year allows us to cease our past behaviors
and move toward an encouraging American experience for all citizens.

Enjoy my list for improving America in 2011:

1. Denver radio
talk show host Peter Boyles, www.khow.com ,
asked the most pertinent question, “Why are we in Iraq and Afghanistan building
their countries while we’re broke and our borders remain unguarded? Not only that, our country’s infrastructure
degrades beyond understanding.” I repeat
Boyles’ question: Why are we in Iraq and Afghanistan after 10 years? Who are we
fighting and why? Are we fighting Muslim
terrorists? Heck, we’re importing 3,000 to 4,000 Muslim refugees into our
country every month without vetting any of them. What’s the point? Muslims can train in Somalia, Sudan, Yemen
and dozens of other countries. Heck,
they are training in our own country as noted by the Times Square Bomber, Fort
Hood assassin, Fort Dix Six, Denver bomb maker, honor killings in Arizona,
Texas and South Carolina and more.

Additionally, the more we kill Muslims in
their world, the more we create and magnify Muslim revenge. The British, Soviets and ultimately, the USA
will be handed its own hat on a bloody platter.
No nation has ever won against Afghanistan. They will wear us down and kill us with body
counts and financial exhaustion. If we
didn’t win in the past 10 years, what makes General Patraeus think we’re going
to win in another 10 years. Exactly how much killing and money will winning
take? What will we have won? What is the point of so much killing of humans
on both sides?

Let’s withdraw from Iraq and Afghanistan. Let’s top burning $12 billion a month while
we kill their people and they kill ours.
We slaughtered over 100,000 in Iraq in the past ten years. Why? What for?
Just to give George Bush a walk on an aircraft carrier to chortle, “Mission
Accomplished!” What a farce and what a
joke, albeit a deadly one, on humanity. Sickening really! All based on the fraud of “Weapons of Mass
Destruction”. My God! How stupid George
Bush! What a disgusting legacy! He killed untold hundreds of thousands in
Iraq and Afghanistan. He created 2.5 million refugees. He destabilized the Middle East. He
accomplished nothing more than death and destruction on an gargantuan scale.
And, today, our young military kids suffer meaningless deaths and maiming of
their bodies.

It’s time to get out and get on with peace
in the world.

2. We
need to take 572,000 American military personnel on 700 bases in 120 countries
around the world—and bring them home. We
don’t need to spend trillions of dollars to maintain our ‘empire’. We cannot afford it, we cannot continue it
and we need to end American dominance of other countries. They are all able to take care of
themselves. We cannot be the policeman
of the world. Vietnam provides an
excellent example.

3. We
need to stop ‘free trade’ and move toward ‘fair trade’. We cannot keep racking up $700 billion a year
trade deficits. China holds $1.3
trillion in our T-Bills. We owe them! But they sell us cheap goods, but we don’t
sell them equally; thus our incredible debt.
And, we no longer make those products and thus, we suffer 15 to 22
million unemployed Americans. Does that make sense that our Congress
continues insourcing, offshoring and
outsourcing our jobs? What’s the benefit?

4. We
need to implement invigorated education energy into our school systems across
the nation. We need to educate parents
and children of parents in our inner cities.
We need to educate by paying healthy teacher’s salaries to bring in the
brightest and best. We pay teachers horribly low salaries for horribly
difficult work under terrible conditions in most big cities. We must make education of our minorities our
top priority. Otherwise, as Katie Couric reported on CBS a few weeks ago, 72
percent of African-American teens are single mothers, 35 percent of Hispanics
and 22 percent of whites. All of them live on welfare. The results in the decades to come will be
catastrophic with entrenched and intractable poverty as a way of life for
millions.

5. We
must curtail federal spending to bring about a balanced budget. We cannot continue adding to our $13 trillion
debt. It will lead us over a cliff and
collapse if we continue on this reckless path.

6. We
need to secure U.S. borders and arrest, prosecute and jail employers of illegal
aliens in all 50 states. Start the INS in Maine and methodically arrest the CEO’s
of big companies first in a national sweep by enforcing our laws. We’ll see 20
million illegal aliens repatriating on their own dime with bus tickets to go
back home. Take away their jobs and give those jobs to Americans at a living
wage. Legal, taxes, recirculation our
money in our country, All—American!

7. We
waste an unholy amount of aluminum cans, glass containers, plastic bottles and
other forms of man-made junk. Especially
plastic bags that fly into our environment, into the water, air and on the
ground. God didn’t give us a blank check
to trash this planet. It’s sickening
that anyone goes to a grocery store without their cotton bags—but instead uses
plastic bags by the hundreds every year and all of them end up somewhere in
Mother Nature. The Sierra Club noted
that American use and waste over 380 billion plastic bags annually. We need a federal 10 cent deposit/return on
every container coming out of any store in America. We need to conserve instead
of raping the earth for more diminishing resources.

8. We
need to come to terms with our profligate burning of gasoline, coal, wood,
natural gas and other diminishing resources that pollute and acidify our
biosphere. We are destroying our oceans by changing the pH, which means we
acidify them that destroys the ecological balance for all ocean creatures. We just cannot keep this irresponsible
behavior up folks.

9. Additionally,
the human race creates havoc with our biosphere in that we inject 80,000
chemical poisons into the air, land and water 24/7. We breathe toxic air over our cities and our
lakes, streams and rivers, along with ground water suffer incredible contamination. We need to address it and stop it.

10. With
every human added to the USA, now at 3.1 million annually, we destroy 19.4
acres of land which we call “ecological footprint” to support that person with
food, housing, roads, schools, stores and farmland. We bring in 1.5 million legal immigrants and
another 500,000 green card holders annually. Immigrants birth 900,000 babies
annually. We multiply ourselves out of
house, home and country. We add another 800,000 illegal aliens annually. That includes
400,000 anchor babies and their mothers that move immediately to our welfare
rolls.

We already suffer 15 million unemployed and
another 7 million underemployed. We only
create 95,000 jobs monthly, but import over 200,000 legal immigrants and green
card holders every 30 days. Tell me how
we will ever catch up to employing our own American citizens. Answer: we won’t. We will continue to degrade our quality of
life and standard of living.

Thus, we need to call for a 10 year
moratorium on all immigration and, later, reduce it to less than 100,000 a year. After the moratorium, we need to import only
immigrants that benefit our civilization.

As it stands, we buy into a Faustian
Bargain that will lead to a Hobson’s Choice ending. That won’t be pretty for
any of us.
